Our first day of school drop off today didn’t go exactly as planned. In fact, the morning was absolutely chaotic; we were late, I forgot our daughter’s bag of school supplies, and totally spaced on taking a picture (big time parental fail, I know). But, I’m planning to turn things around by cooking up a fast and tasty batch of brownies for a little first day of school celebration when she gets home. We’ll get that first day picture, eat some brownies, and all will be right with the world.
